interesting concept over at diyma
someone was talking about pros and cons of keeping a stock h/u and it was brought up that you could go directly from your speaker level outputs to a balanced input on and amp. After a lot of prying on how this is possible there was a reply that piqued my interest:
I'm not sure about the theory of the above statement but it does seem like it could work though i wonder about impedance and voltage issues.
With the c6's h/u being pretty flat, i'm wondering if this would be a viable alternative for some?
here is the thread:

This may have been true in the old days but not so these days. Head units don't have built in switching power supplies needed to produce a high enough rail voltage to deliver decent power to a speaker. SO, they use bridged outputs. And what is a bridged output? One lead is the straight audio signal, the other is its inverse. If you reference these two to the chassis ground on the head unit you have a balanced output.

The output of the C6 heads is not only flat, it's line level. So there's no point in getting involved in the speaker outputs, which would be post-Bose processing & amplification and no longer flat.
And while the C6 heads outputs may be flat, that doesn't mean they sound good.

i didnt realize they were line level.
heh.. yeah, i dont think i'd go that route (well even if i had a c6 haha) but i thought it may be another option for those wanting to stay with the oem look.
it's still a pretty interesting concept though
